bunch of poplar shafts..
sailordad:
aero, they should work decent from them bows
but ifn your gonna hunt with them bows,heavier arrows will penetrate much better
ill bet them light arrows zip out of a bow though
aero86:
i found a couple red oak dowels and i put a few together. 600 grains with that head. i havent planned to hunt anything big for a long time.
sailordad:
well if the grain is straight in them dowels
at that weight i would hunt with them
aero86:
yeah, i went through a bunch of shafts, got pretty lucky.
The Gopher:
are those 5/16"?
I usually get about 450 grains total (125 grain point) when i make them from 5/16" poplar. 28-29" long. I wonder why mine ar ea bit more?
I really like my oak dowel hunting arrows, it can take a long time to find oak that is straight grained but they sure make a heavy, durable, pretty arrow.
